should be bombing isis in syria? >> well, i don't think we should go to bombing isis in syria over the killing of this journalist. there may be strategic reasons down the road why select targets are necessary to hit. i don't think we're there yet. syria and iraq are two very different circumstances. >> what will get us there? >> right now we have a government we can work with in iraq. we have a kurdish military we can help support. we don't have those elements in syria. and i don't see that changing any time soon. but there may be a fight that goes on near the syria and iraq border. the military equation may change in syria, where air strikes are either necessary or desirable. but i don't think we're there yet, and i think the president is going to have to resist efforts, and i think he is to become a fully en tangled in the civil war in syria and in the conflict in iraq. we need to play a supportive role. and i think, brooke, we also have to understand that regardless of what we do, whether we strike in the air now

it's believed they are being held in syria. the u.s. military has no military forces in the air or on the ground there at syria. but i can tell you, one of the big questions, of course, was the threat from isis, that if the u.s. continues these air strikes, there would be similar killings. the u.s. military went through this in the opening war itself in iraq. when al qaeda in iraq was grabbing americans and other foreigners and beheaded them on camera, yet the military proceedings. the portland made it clear that the u.s. would continue to support the iraqis and the kurds in their efforts to fight back and beat back isis. so there is no backing off on the part of the u.s. military. and i guess you would say it's written in stone that the u.s. military cannot be held hostage to terrorist threats. so the president made it clear that the u.s. military was not going to back down at this particular time and to make it even more clear, there were at least 11 air strikes against isis targets in and around that mosul dam region overnight after
